Nielsen Racing Gearing up for Seventh Asian Le Mans Challenge

2022 LMP2 Champions Return with Top Class Lineup

Nielsen Racing is thrilled to announce our exciting driver lineup for the upcoming Asian Le Mans Series, bringing together Naveen Rao, Matt Bell, and Nicky Catsburg in the #24 LMP2 Oreca.
 
Naveen Rao and Matt Bell are no strangers to sharing the cockpit, having competed together in IMSA and at the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans. Matt returns to Nielsen Racing for a fifth go at the Asian Le Mans title after winning in his LMP2 debut with the team in 2022.  Naveen is no stranger to Nielsen Racing either, having raced with the team’s technical support at Petit Le Mans in 2021.
 
Joining them is endurance legend Nicky Catsburg, another Asian Le Mans champion who returns for more, this time in the top class. Known for his success as a works driver with both BMW and Corvette, Nicky brings a wealth of achievements, including victories at all the major 24-Hour races and as the last GTE World Endurance Champion. 
 
This season marks Nielsen Racing’s seventh entry in the Asian Le Mans Series, highlighting the team’s consistent presence and commitment to the championship and ACO competition. With a strong driver lineup and years of experience in the Asian series, Nielsen Racing is ready to build on its successes and make the most of the upcoming season with one clear objective: the 2025 24 Hours of Le Mans.
